My Project Portfolio

Control Systems:

Industrial Robotic Animatronic

Protection and Controls:

Substation Controls Overhaul/Upgrade

Read More
  • Collaborated with the lead director in a major substation upgrade, focusing on the complete replacement of transmission breaker relays and associated controls, ensuring seamless integration and reliability with an improvement in compliance with ANSI and IEEE standards.
  • Led main design on 161 kV transmission breakers’ relaying protection and controls, main capacitor bank protection and controls, CVT junction box replacements, replaced equipment removals, and SCADA telecommunications upgrade, totaling over 150+ electrical schematics designed and drafted.
  • Applied project management methodologies (30-60-90 percent), utilizing KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) and RFIs (Request for Information) to streamline processes, ensure project milestones were met, and maintain clear communication with clients to align expectations and resolve issues.

Machine Learning:

Bank Fraud Detection Model Analysis

Control Systems:

Roller Coaster Simulator

Read More
  • Conceptualized and launched development of a roller coaster simulator device for training new technicians on programmable logic controllers (PLCs), ride trend data collection, and sensor applications/testing, resulting in over a 50% reduction in PLC diagnosis time for participants.
  • Led the design, construction, and weekly progress presentations of the simulator by installing, wiring, and testing motors, solenoids, PLCs, relays, and sensors, while completing the bill of materials and work order documentation to ensure alignment with strategic goals.

PLCs & Motor Drivers:

Ride Vehicle Restoration

Read More
  • Successfully restore an inoperable, “out of show” Ride Vehicle (RV) needing major repairs, resulting in an upward of 10% reduction in overall ride downtimes.
  • Installed newly upgraded VFD drives due to manufacturer discontinuation, completing wire diagrams and proper labeling, which decreased troubleshooting time by 25%.
  • Identified and resolved errors in the electrical print, drafting the correct wire diagrams, and updating drawings to proper specifications with Engineering approval.
  • Implemented testing of RV to ensure compliance with safety standards set by ASTM standards.
